scaling in qcad

[mrbuildit]

I'm sure it's out there somewhere and i'm not finding it. How do I go about resizing an entire file in qcad? my example would be if I have a design that imported as a dxf from inkscape at 1.5" but I need it to be 20" in qcad. Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me or steer me in the right direction.

Why not scale it in Inkscape then export it as a DXF and import it in Qcad.
Set Inkscape to be in inches and then in the top menu there is a place it displays dimensions and there is a lock icon. If you change it to a closed lock and change one dimension (height or width) it holds the aspect ratio so they both change.

Select what you want scaled, go to modify/scale.

It will ask for a point about which you want to scale it.

Then enter the scale factor.
